“Unless you’re talking about “power walking” at a very high intensity. And even that doesn’t exercise all of your muscle groups.”
There are actually 4 types of “high intensity” walking
-Power walking (around 4 mph)
-Speed walking (is an actual Olympic event and can get up to 9 mph for long distances.
-HIIT (High intensity interval training) where you change up walking, jogging, and sprints
-Farmers walks, where you walk for short durations while carrying heavy weights
But I was just talking about using moderate intensity walking as a form of active recovery on non lifting days to achieve and maintain adequate levels of cardio fitness that will not ruin your strength gains like high intensity cardio will.
